Upstream pushed some new commits to try to address the issue. Still doesn't build. gr-ieee802-11-git.log

I've opened an issue upstream at bastibl/gr-ieee802-11/#394. What about adding a _reverts=(...) array, then in prepare() you could have: [...]

Thank you! Let's first wait a bit and give the upstream some time (a couple of days), maybe they'll fix the problem quickly. If it takes them too long, then we can revert the patch in PKGBUILD as you suggested.

Are you sure you want your email publicly visible in that diff?

It can be seen in the cgit anyway (by clicking View PKGBUILD), but thanks. Redacted.

for _c in "${_reverts[@]}"; do
  git log --oneline -1 "${_c}"
  git revert -n "${_c}"
done

@xiota: thank you for reporting!

I can reproduce the problem and getting the same error message. As can be seen from the logs, the build is failing not because of missing dependencies, but due to a compilation error ("static assertion failed"). git-blame tells me that the line triggering the error was changed in commit abed50bf7fb029032bd60e78948b5709aa060cfc (Fri Aug 4 13:09:57 2023 +0200), which is the current HEAD of the maint-3.10 branch.

Building without this commit (HEAD^ == 965e2d474fafb3211b1eb5f464b6ddcaa5d2d694) succeeds, so here is a quick patch fixing the package build:

But rather than merging this patch, I think it makes sense to report the problem upstream and get it fixed there. Could you please open an issue (https://github.com/bastibl/gr-ieee802-11/issues) describing the problem? I don't have access to my GitHub account anymore.

To smooth upgrade, also add replaces=('gr-ieee802-11=c19b0ad')?

Could you please explain why c19b0ad (https://github.com/bastibl/gr-ieee802-11/commit/c19b0ad)?

Because that was the version used for this package back then, if I remember correctly.

Hi @dreieck,

Can you please add conflicts=('gr-ieee802-11')?

sure, will be done in the next pkgrel=2.

I still had an old gr-ieee802-11 lying around.

Regards!, thanks for maintaining.

gnuradio on community has been updated to 3.10, so this doesn't work anymore. It seems like you can just change the source line to point to the new maint-3.10 branch that was recently added upstream. I tested this and it seems to work just fine.

I created a new package with '-git' in the name: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gr-ieee802-11-git and submitted a Merge Request. Most of the comments have been addressed, except the versioning problems.
